Working with Headers

Aspose.Words - Working with Headers

The following sample code demonstrates how to create headers/footers using DocumentBuilder.

Java

// The path to the documents directory.
String dataDir = Utils.getDataDir(AsposeHeaders.class);

Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

Section currentSection = builder.getCurrentSection();
PageSetup pageSetup = currentSection.getPageSetup();

// Specify if we want headers/footers of the first page to be different from other pages.
// You can also use PageSetup.OddAndEvenPagesHeaderFooter property to specify
// different headers/footers for odd and even pages.
pageSetup.setDifferentFirstPageHeaderFooter(true);

// --- Create header for the first page. ---
pageSetup.setHeaderDistance(20);
builder.moveToHeaderFooter(HeaderFooterType.HEADER_FIRST);
builder.getParagraphFormat().setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.CENTER);

// Set font properties for header text.
builder.getFont().setName("Arial");
builder.getFont().setBold(true);
builder.getFont().setSize(14);
// Specify header title for the first page.
builder.write("Aspose.Words Header/Footer Creation Primer - Title Page.");

// Save the resulting document.
doc.save(dataDir + "AsposeHeader.doc");

Apache POI HWPF XWPF - Working with Headers

HeaderStories can be used to access Headers of the document.

Java

// The path to the documents directory.
String dataDir = Utils.getDataDir(ApacheHeaders.class);

POIFSFileSystem fs = null;

fs = new POIFSFileSystem(new FileInputStream(dataDir + "AsposeHeader.doc"));
HWPFDocument doc = new HWPFDocument(fs);

int pageNumber = 1;

HeaderStories headerStore = new HeaderStories(doc);
String header = headerStore.getHeader(pageNumber);

System.out.println("Header Is: " + header);
